RAINWATER HARVESTING KITS - INSTALLATION MANUAL<br />
The timer only operates when the panel is turned on.<br />
Maintenance<br />
The <strong>Marley</strong> rainwater harvesting system is designed for minimal<br />
maintenance, requiring only periodic cleaning of the silt trap and<br />
the filter unit within the central riser. The USW200 is also fitted<br />
with an in-line filter.<br />
The cleaning frequency required to maintain efficient operation of<br />
the system will be dependent on specific installation factors such<br />
as type of roof material used for the <strong>co</strong>llecting surfaces and the<br />
proximity of any trees, but generally it is re<strong>co</strong>mmended that the<br />
inspection <strong>co</strong>vers are lifted every 4-6 weeks to carry out visual checks.<br />
a) Silt Trap<br />
Remove the inspection <strong>co</strong>ver screws and remove any large<br />
particles of debris from the trap. If required, the leaf guard can<br />
be pulled clear of the unit to check for build up of debris around<br />
the outlet. Ensure the guard is replaced over the outlet<br />
afterwards. If the level of <strong>co</strong>llected sediment is within<br />
approximately 100mm of the invert of the outlet, use a small<br />
<strong>co</strong>ntainer to remove it before replacing and securing the <strong>co</strong>ver<br />
b) Water Filter<br />
Both systems in<strong>co</strong>rporate a 30 day reminder timer within the<br />
<strong>co</strong>ntrols to advise when the filter needs to be checked. This can<br />
be reset by pressing the right hand button. The frequency with<br />
which the filter needs to be checked and cleaned will depend on<br />
the specific installation <strong>co</strong>nditions and, to a certain extent, the<br />
time of year. To access the water filter unit, unscrew and remove<br />
the inspection <strong>co</strong>ver from the inlet chamber. (Refer to<br />
‘Operational safety’ on back page).<br />
i.Reach down into the chamber and pull the flexible hose elbow<br />
from the top of the filter housing, taking care to ensure that any<br />
<strong>co</strong>llected debris in the hose does not fall into the water<br />
ii.Release the filter housing outlet from its <strong>co</strong>nnection by pulling the<br />
housing upwards then withdrawing it with the outlet uppermost.<br />
iii.Remove the filter housing <strong>co</strong>ver by unscrewing the two screw<br />
fixings and flush out any <strong>co</strong>llected debris from the filter drum<br />
with a hose. If there is any fine sediment in the base of the<br />
housing the drum can be removed by releasing the base screw.<br />
iv.If the drum is removed, ensure that the fixing bar is aligned<br />
with the centreline of the outlet when it is replaced.<br />
When replacing the filter unit ensure that the outlet is <strong>co</strong>rrectly<br />
located in the inlet chamber and that the two support legs are<br />
firmly seated across the well.<br />
c) In-line filter<br />
Before <strong>co</strong>mmencing, ensure that the power supply to the <strong>co</strong>ntrols<br />
is isolated and that the isolation valve is closed. To clean the filter<br />
mesh, loosen the nut on the body, unscrew the housing, remove<br />
the filter and flush under a tap.<br />
Operational safety<br />
Although it is inevitable that <strong>co</strong>llected rainwater in the storage tank<br />
will <strong>co</strong>ntain a small amount of bacterial matter, under normal<br />
circumstances this will not present a problem. It is however advisable<br />
to observe the following precautions when using the system.<br />
•Do not allow excessive amounts of debris to build up in the silt<br />
trap and main filter. Even if the system appears to be<br />
functioning, the maintenance checks detailed in this manual<br />
should always be carried out on a regular basis.<br />
•Do not allow the water to be used for drinking purposes.<br />
•Always dis<strong>co</strong>nnect and drain down any garden hoses <strong>co</strong>nnected<br />
to the system after use. Wherever possible, store hoses away<br />
from any heat sources such as direct sunlight.<br />
•In normal use the inspection <strong>co</strong>ver to the well must be kept<br />
secured with the three fixing screws fully tightened. Access<br />
should only be required when carrying out periodic<br />
maintenance on the filter unit.<br />
•Whenever the <strong>co</strong>ver is removed for inspection or filter cleaning,<br />
the well must not be left unattended. In particular, children<br />
should be kept away from the area.<br />
•Always isolate the power supply when carrying out any<br />
maintenance work on the system.<br />
•If the mains supply cable be<strong>co</strong>mes damaged during use it must<br />
be replaced by a qualified electrician.<br />
•If the supply cable to the pump be<strong>co</strong>mes damaged during use,<br />
the pump must be replaced.<br />
